To make a “model” and then to scale it up or replicate it is an idea from the shop floor-based industry. Machines, vehicles, and tools that need to perform predetermined results need to be first designed, then modelled for their quality and eventually mass produced so that it can benefit many to achieve the predetermined results. Uniformity in the machine’s functional performance, Standardisation of production and Efficiency to ensure optimal resource utilization are values that dictate the shop floor thought process. These values are parameterized as standards of measure and these measures in term determine the “quality” of the machine. A “model” machine is evaluated for such “quality” before it is “scaled up” to be mass produced.
